I graduated from this school and my children graduated from Zion. This is an amazing school and community. Of course, it is smaller and may not have everything a larger school has or offers. But Zion Chapel has some of the most successful graduates around. The teachers and counselors truly care about their students and communicate well with the parents from my experience. (And I have 4 children) I have no complaints. And this year I believe we have one of, if not the best administrations with the Coffee County Board, in or around Alabama.

The school has grown very much in the last five years. The community is very involved with the school programs. The youth sports program is improving a lot and is getting their own fields and places for games and practice. As a parent of a student there, it is good to know that quite a few of the teachers are alumni and well known people of the community. They look at the students as their own children, which in turn makes for a more personal teaching experience. Families are always asking about homes for sale or rent in this district because they want to move their children to this school.

MY wife went to Zion and i learned then just how close the community is. There wasn't near as much separation between the haves and have-nots as the school i graduated from. Now my two children go there and they are very well adjusted and bright. Most of the faculty is great and the teachers seem to really care about their students. Could use more involvement from the school into the youth sports programs though this has gotten better in recent years.

This school is a very good school. The involvement in the school is unreal. If your looking for you child a safe place this is it. We have some of the best teachers in the state. As well as the top testing scores In the State. Its just a awesome place for education and athletics.

I attended Zion Chapel from middle school through High school. I can agree that the community here is tightly knit, but the education here is remedial at best. There are too few electives offered and only one foreign language available. If you do not fail a class, you will find yourself taking the same class twice anyway, such as two or three home ec or ag classes, because there simply isn't enough variety. The educators do strive for their best, but the funding and supplies are limited. Many individual teachers are superb, but there were a few bad apples too, that gave crossword puzzles and word finds rather than actually teach a structured class. When I reached college, I was challenged to keep up with the requirements and expectations of college level education. The school also tended to fall victim to cliques, where you either belonged, or you didn't. Please take this into account if your child doesn't fall into the narrow social expectations of this rural school.

I am a graduate of ZC and I can say, I loved the being at a small school. Students get that 1-on-1 attention they need to be successful and having teachers who REALLY care about them being successful. I'm sure of how things are going now, but I believe that my HS education set the foundation for my successful career. ZCHS Class of 1997.

Attended Zion Chapel in the 90's and am so glad I got out and moved to California after years of remedial education I finally got into the University of San Diego.
